10 Best Cauliflower Rice Recipes for Keto From Across The World

10 Low Carb Cauliflower Rice Recipes

Most cultures across the world depend heavily on eating some grain-based food to accompany their main food. For example, the Italians have their pasta and spaghetti, the Mexicans have their tacos, the Asians have their noodles and rice, and the Indians have their chapatis and naans. With the strict restriction on grains, it pretty much puts all of these foods out of the dieters' diet plan!

And, thus, Cauli Rice is so important. It not only provides a healthy replacement to these foods but is also a completely Keto-approved solution that is delicious and easy to prepare. However, since different cultures prefer their side dishes prepared according to their tastes, it was important that we look at all the different variations of Cauli Rice that not only fits your diet plan but also pleases your palate.

This is why we compiled a list of the best variations of Cauli Rice from across the world along with detailed recipes.

Let's begin with the basics. The Classic Cauli Rice is easy to make, delicious, and has no added hassles. With only 3 ingredients: cauliflower, butter and salt, you can get your Cauli Rice ready to go in less than 10 mins. The best part is that you can make it on a frying pan or in a microwave.

2. Cilantro-Lime Cauliflower Rice

3. Coconut Cauliflower Rice (Thai)

If you are not a big fan of lime, then you can try the other-Keto favorite food - Coconut on top of the most Keto favorite food-Cauliflower. The added coconut gives it a beautiful flavor that is reminiscent in the Thai cuisine and adds a bit of variety to your Cauli rice.

4. Broccoli Cauliflower Rice

Both Cilantro-lime and Coconut are strong flavors and can overwhelm the taste of Cauliflower in your side dish. If you prefer to keep it mellow just go with the Broccoli Cauli Rice. Because Broccoli and Cauliflower both belong to essentially the same vegetable family, the taste remains the same and the broccoli just adds oodles of nutrition to your dish.

Moving on, you must have noticed how subtle changes in your recipe can completely alter the look and feel (and taste) of your cauli-rice. You can use this knowledge to align your cauli-rice to your taste and cuisine. Depending on your mood or the type of food you're planning to have just make these simple changes to close your perfect side dish.
